iRobot Roomba 790 Review: Man’s New Best Friend

The iRobot Roomba 790 is the newly introduce automatic robotic vacuum by Roomba you must have today. The sleek design, ease of functionality, and the moreover exciting features of cleaning the full house at the power of a remote control or automatic functional capability is something every technology lifestyle enthusiast needs.

The iRobot Roomba is quite the marvel in terms of design. The blue circular housing is home to the 3-stage cleaning process which is used to vacuum hardwood, linoleum, carpets, stone, and much more. The features of the Roomba include the advanced cleaning head for pet owners, while providing a nice AeroVac Series 2 bin which is very easy to clean (simply dumping the contents by opening a small tab and closing it back up). The iRobot Roomba 790 has undoubtedly made work increasingly less through its bounce scheme of cleaning. Floors are cleaned through Dirt Detect Series 2 Persistent Pass which sweeps dirt heavy areas more than once, there is barely any work to be done, and walls are safe with the soft-touch bumper. This piece of marvel goes right underneath those hard-to-reach spots (chairs, couches, etc) with enough clearance. The Wireless Command Center allows consumers to control the iRobot Roomba 790 with the remote and clean their house simply sitting down. Scheduling is another ease of use functionality feature that can be done and is very handy.

Current enthusiasts for vacuum lifestyle products are still looking into the effectiveness of the bounce structure of cleaning, which is essentially the vacuum has no memory for a room blue-print. While this is the only current flaw with the iRobot Roomba 790 to some, to us it does not matter. While a mapping system may be open to room for improvement in later series, the Roomba covers floors flawlessly eventually. Virtual Lighthouses allow for temporary walls to be put up. What these tell the Roomba is, “Clean the room for 25 minutes, then enter past this point.” That is the effective timing of the Roomba. It may require several lighthouses and even a more custom-made battery pack to run the Roomba for much longer than the standard battery, but if the iRobot Roomba 790 is low on battery, it flashes “DOCK” and returns to the base unit to charge.

Regardless of the small inner workings of house wall setups and enhancing battery life, the iRobot Roomba does great with its Dual HEPA filters and simple functionality in achieving its primary goal. Cleaning is made easy with the Beater Brushes and the Carrying Case is more than an appreciated gesture by iRobot. The iRobot Roomba 790 is definitely something any lifestyle enthusiast must have. The iRobot Roomba 790 is simply a cleaning beast and man’s new best friend.
